Juliana was the perfect dog sitter to watch our boys! She visited beforehand to make sure she knew how to take care of and walk them, and diligently recorded everything about the walks and feedings and sent a message on how it went and a photo. Would book again!

Dominique is an exceptional dog sitter! He took amazing care of our large, active dog, managing his energy with ease and ensuring he was happy and well-exercised throughout his stay. Dominique is a fantastic communicator, always prompt and clear in his updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. He truly went above and beyond—not only taking excellent care of our pup but also helping out around the house, like taking out the garbage. We couldn’t recommend him more highly and will definitely book him again!

Amie remains a favorite in our house. Daisy is always so happy when Amie has visited and therefore we are all happy knowing our pup is well cared for. She is a great communicator and incredibly flexible, always putting our pup first.

Ajia is professional and communicative. I have two cats who aren’t always the easiest to deal with and have complicated medication, however Ajia handled them with ease. She also has managed to be in good graces with my oldest cat who is notoriously moody. I felt that my cats were in good hands.

About: I have taken classes in dog behaviors and how they act when they might need a particular action done. I have a NAPPS certification, which is National Association of Professional Pet Sitters that is earned for all small animals, both including dogs and cats. I have had my own very young puppy, so I know how to handle and train them in a gentle manner that they will respond to. I have tons of experience in senior dogs and cats, so I am patient to more slow animals or paying attention to them more and making sure they have what they need. I have an extremely open schedule and can stay over for longer periods of time than most people. I am free almost every single day for hours on end, so finding when I can come over is no trouble. I’m easy to schedule if I need to house sit, and am extremely responsible and willing to stay overnight when needed. I love taking care of animals in their own homes, knowing they’ll feel the most comfortable surrounded by their familiar surroundings. The only thing I care about is that your furry companions are safe and cared for in a way that they don’t feel out of place or missing the love they got before you left them in my care.

About: I love all dogs, but I've grown up taking care of primarily large dogs like Pitbulls. My neighbors rely on me very often to take care of their pets when needed. I currently have a very flexible schedule while I am going to college online. I am available during the week and some weekends! Pet care is already built into my daily routine, so please let me know how I can make your day easier by spending some time with your fur baby. During the walks your fur baby is my main focus. I love going for long walks to get some energy out, but short walks are also nice. I walk my sweet dog separately from other fur babies to alleviate the stress of dog introductions.

Nicole took care of our senior bunny for 3 days and she provided really great, detailed reports that put our minds at ease! Always stressful to leave a pet, but particularly a senior rabbit, so we don’t do it lightly and really need someone solid to sit! Really appreciated all the care and effort she put into her time with us and will look to book her again next time we’re away!

Morgan was great! She took care of every detail while we were gone and was diligent about learning our kitten’s routine before we left. Our kitten got super comfortable with her and we loved seeing the photos of our kitty in the visit updates along with notes about how much he ate, playtime, etc. We look forward to using her again in the future!
